Chapter 162: Alliance
"But even so, we still can't act openly in the future. Princesses, their grievances can't be cleared? "That's when I suddenly realized the problem with this plan.
Malthus looked at me, smiled wryly, and spread his hands, "We can't want everything, my dear majesty. Your previous movements were so great that even if I used the power of the Holy See, it would be impossible for me to make everything act as if nothing had happened, and it was already my limit to be able to do this, so you had to be wronged..."
"This..."Hearing this, I suddenly hesitated, in fact, it is nothing for me to be personally wronged, after all, I have been suffering from fate all my life, and there is nothing to do with such a little trouble at the moment, but what should the princess and Ah Zi do? Doesn't this mean that they should completely give up their lives and live incognito from now on? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at the princess and the others on the side with an inquiring gaze.
"I don't care, I've been ready to die since the day I joined the Templars." The princess was the first to see my thoughts, shrugged her shoulders and said lightly, her messy hair blowing in the evening breeze revealing a slightly decadent beauty...
"Uh... I've been on the run anyway, and it probably wouldn't be a bad thing to convince the Grand Senate that I'm dead." Xiao Jia lowered her head and pondered for a while, and finally nodded vigorously as if she had finally made up her mind.
"I don't care, I've been wronged for so many years anyway..."Antonla said with a disdainful face, but then again, many of the accusations against you don't seem to be wronged...
"What about you?" Because Ah Zi is not in front of him, so in the end, only Maria has not yet spoken, and now I am most unsure of her, after all, she is not like Ah Zi and everyone lived and died together for so long, this girl chose to stand on the same side with us out of loyalty to the faith, although I personally have a good impression of her, but at the critical moment, let her work hand in hand with her own enemy Malthus, who is not in the same sky, how to think about this thing is a bit unreliable, and if she refuses, That means that you may become your rival again in the future, which I don't want to see in any way...
"Do I have a choice?" Maria smiled wryly, and in my heart she was surprised by her reaction.
"Isn't that okay?" I asked.
"Actually, I don't know, all these years of my life have been dedicated to the Holy See, I feel like I am fighting for God, but I find that I have been working for the devil... So what is the stake of everything I've done before? "At this point, Maria's eyes were full of fear, which is the kind of fear that comes after the collapse of one's faith, just like the night I killed my master.
"Don't blame yourself too much, my dear child, life is made up of lies, the difference is that some people see through it, and some people don't..." At this time, Malthus, who was on the side, couldn't help but speak.
"Shut up!" I couldn't help but glare at Malthus when he was still in the mood to say cool things, even though in some ways it might not be wrong...
Maria shook her head with a wry smile and said, "It's okay, anyway, I can't go back to the Holy See now, let's act with you first, after all, I don't feel at ease with such a threat as you hanging outside." ”
"Which side will you be on if our opponent in the future is a god or an angel?" Don't ask, at this time, the only person who will not hesitate to pour cold water on it may be a guy - Antonla, but in my heart, I can't help but be a little curious about this question...
"It depends on who they're up to?" Maria replied.
"What do you mean by that?" Anton La asked.
"If they're going to destroy the Demon King, I'll not hesitate to side with them, but if they're going to destroy Kane, I'll probably have to think about it."
Everyone was stunned at first, but soon understood what Maria meant, if I fell into the devil's path in the future, then she would stand firmly on the opposite side of me, but if I was still the sentimental Roger. Kane, then Maria will still be my comrade-in-arms, even if it would be against her beliefs, as an enemy who was alive and die not long ago, such a change is commendable.
"Well, since there is no one to oppose anymore, does this mean that our alliance has been formed?" At this point, Malthus couldn't help but ask.
"It's only temporary." Antonla deliberately emphasized.
"Of course, there are no permanent allies in this world."
"So what do we do next?" I asked.
"Now my main enemy is undoubtedly the Fourth Highness, after all, it is impossible for it to be indifferent to the death of Gragon, so I will immediately gather all the forces of the Holy See to prepare for war after I return, but it is difficult to say whether this rigid and corrupt church can withstand the attack of the Fourth Highness, so I hope to be able to get your help."
"We?" Anton La was surprised.
"You're not kidding, are you? It's not that you didn't see the situation during the day, with the strength of so many of us, we barely managed to kill a Gragon, if the opponent is replaced by the "Twelve Demon Gods", we will only have to die, not to mention that the opponent also has the strongest combat power in the Demon Realm today, and the opponent who can't even deal with the power of the entire church, what do you think a few of us can do?"
"Don't get excited, my dear King of the Red Flame." Malthus smiled and reassured, if you put aside the disfigured face, just listen to the tone of the voice, and look at the demeanor and movements, the "Dream Demon King" at this time really looks like a respectable, kind and kind man.
"I'm not asking you to directly confront the Four Highnesses, let me take the liberty of saying that just by virtue of the fact that you are afraid that you will be killed before you see the presence of the Four Highnesses. That's why we need to become stronger, or at least make Your Majesty stronger as soon as possible..."
"Do you have a way?" Anton La couldn't help but wonder when he heard this.
"Of course... You may have forgotten that the soul of the Demon King in this world is not only in His Majesty's body."
"Nonsense, even children know about this! Wait, you don't already know the whereabouts of the rest of the Demon King's souls, do you?"
"The King of the Red Flame is really smart."
"Don't be a sycophant, say something specific!"
"In fact, the Holy See has been pursuing the whereabouts of the Demon King's soul all these years, for fear that it will be used by people such as "Houdini", but it has had little success, after all, if this thing was so easy to find, His Majesty would have been resurrected a long time ago, and there is no need to delay until today. Finally, forced by the situation... Of course, I personally played a small role in this, and the Holy See finally decided to take a risk and put the breakthrough on Houdini's research..."
"I see... It is ironic that even the high-ranking Holy See will have to resort to heresy in the end." As a long-time nemesis, Antonla does not seem to miss any opportunity to mock the Holy See.
"Who's to say it's not, so-called "justice" is sometimes just so hypocritical." Malthus folded his hands and agreed, and the two of them could quickly agree on this matter.
